I just don't want anyone to have a say in your fate again, I suppose. Even in that. ...But I'm glad it helped you, that it prevented you from hurting others.
[as much as he thinks shenhe is like him, she's different from him in that at least.]
[i don't want anyone to have a say in your fate again.
bit by bit that misery is peeling away. she wonders, for a moment, if he knows what that means to her, and then thinks - yeah, maybe more than anybody.]
... If anybody curses you again, you can come to me, and I will heal it for you.

I figured you might. [...] I will miss you. If worst comes to worst.

I believe you. [and she does. she always believes what he tells her. he hasn't lied to her yet, she thinks.] And I'm sorry if I worried you.
